This is roughly the time line that experts suggested incidentally. There was a couple of month of backlog that was being cleared, and now it's gone and reserves are starting to get low. So, there's no way to hide fuel shortages or associated byproducts like helium now. Also a fun fact is that helium can't be stockpiled and relies on constant production.
